Hahahaha! I saw that the other day, too - hysterical!I remember getting my wisdom teeth out. While i was going under, I told the anesthetist or whatever that she looked like Wilma Flintstone. When it was all over, I thought they forgot to take out my wisdom teeth, and insisted I could walk, only to go all jelly legged on the floor.Thank God my dad didn't have a smart phone back then.Oh, and he also apparently heard me telling the doctors (when I insisted I could walk) that I'd been waaay more fucked up than THAT.Still - no pain later, although my friends and I did enjoy the drugs for days, anyway. :)

Some of us are not so lucky--I had one removed while I was awake...no drugs, and by the end of it the dentist had his foot braced on the chair between my knees and I was gripping the arms as he wrenched these pliers back and forth...gotta love third world medicine.

Seriously messed me up for good.

I twitch and demand liquor whenever the word "dentist" comes up in passing conersation...

Fucking brilliant... i had to get my wisdom teeth out in OR cuz one was way up there, i fought going under for as long as i could and when the doc looked to see if i was out and i wasn't he asked, "are you fighting it?" i grinned and nodded and then he said "lights out" and i woke up in recovery where i was given, wait for it... dilaudid, what a fine day.
